25
what is the normal cardiac output of arterial blood in litres ?
4-6 liters
26
describe blood flow response to 1-leg exercise in severe intensity vs moderate intensity :
- higher PO - greater VO2 - not reaching study state - increases in proportion with oxygen uptake / utilization requirements
27
what is hemodynamics ?
is how your blood flows through your blood vessels
28
what is the term used to describe how your blood flows through your blood vessels ?
hemodynamics
29
blood flow is required by all tissues and is dependent on what two factors :
pressure and resistance
30
describe pressure :
- force that drives flow - provided by heart contraction - blood flow from region of high pressure to region of low pressure
31
if there is no gradient what does this mean for flow ?
no flow
32
describe pressure :
- force that opposes flow - provided by physical properties of vessels = cause pressure differential from arterial to venous circulation
33
what does vasoconstriction do for radius ?
decreases radius
34
what is the most important determinant of resistance ?
modification of vessel radius
35
what are the two modifications of vessel radius ?
vasoconstriction and vasodilation
36
what locations of the heart is blood flow from region of high pressure to region of low pressure
region of high pressure = LV & arteries region of low pressure = RA & veins
37
how do we calculate blood flow (Q) ?
Q = MAP / TPR
38
what does Q stand for ?
local blood flow
39
what does MAP stand for ?
mean arterial pressure
40
what does TPR stand for ?
total peripheral resistance
41
what term is "taking systolic/diastolic blood pressure and finding the average"
MAP
42
what is arterial pressure ?
driving pressure from the hear
43
what takes longer to fill up the heart ?
DSP (diastolic)
44
between thirds how much is diastolic vs systolic ?
2/3 DBP and 1/3 systolic
45
what are the three things in arterial blood pressure ?
- systolic pressure (SBP) - diastolic pressure (DBP) - mean arterial pressure (MAP)
46
describe systolic pressure :
- highest pressure in artery (during systole)
47
describe diastolic pressure :
- lowest pressure in artery (during diastole)
48
what is the bottom number for diastolic pressure ?
around 70 to 80 mmHg
49
what is the top number for systolic pressure ?
around 110 to 120 mmHg (rest)
50
how do we calculate MAP ?
around 2/3 DBP + 1/3 SBP
51
what does DBP stand for ?
diastolic blood pressure
52
what does CVP stand for ?
central venous pressure
53
what is central venous pressure ?
blood pressure taken in the vena cava or right atrium pressure
54
what reflects the amount of blood returning to the heart and the ability of the right heart to pump blood into pulmonary circulation ?
central venous pressure
55
what is the normal rages of venous blood pressure ; central venous pressure ?
0 - 8 mmHg
56
why does systolic blood pressure go up during exercise ?
to direct more flow during exercise
57

viscosity of blood
58

increase TPR

an increase in MAP means what for TPR ?
decrease in TPR
74
TRUE OR FALSE ? blood flows to sites where its most needed
true
75
TRUE OR FALSE ? regions of increased metabolism = increase blood flow
true
76
with blood flow (at rest = 5L/min) how much % is distributed ?
liver, kidneys, receive = 50% of. skeletal muscle receives = 20% of.
77
FILL IN THE BLANK with blood flow (heavy exercise = 25 L/min) exercising muscles receive ___ of via VD. - flow to liver, kidneys decrease via VC.
80 %
78
what are resting cardiac output and leg blood flow ?
cardiac output = 10 L/min leg blood flow = 4 L/min
79
what are exercise cardiac output and leg blood flow ?
cardiac output = 25 L/min leg blood flow = 20 L/min
80
what is leg blood flow ?
80% of cardiac output
81
what type of wall of smooth muscle do arterioles have ?
strong muscular wall
82
what do smooth muscle use between actin and myosin to develop force tension and Ca+ serve to initiate contraction ?
crossbridge
83
an increase intramuscular Ca+ = contraction or relaxation
contraction
84
a decrease intramuscular Ca+ = contraction or relaxation
relation
85
what is smooth muscle innervated by ?
sympathetic nerve efferents
